You said you like The Smiths. Do you know Morrissey is playing SXSW?

Is he really? Brilliant. We were asked to support him on his UK tour. I guess it was his decision. I can't imagine Morrissey letting anybody else make any kind of decisions like that for him. He invited us, but we're so busy we couldn't fit it into the schedule, which is a shame. Wow, what an artist. He's got so much determination. He knows exactly what he wants, which I really admire.

Editors should be edited out.. (Score:1)
If Morrissey likes Editors I'm more than surprised... 'Munich' is a catchy song of theirs but that's only because of the melody. Their lyrics are just pure nonsense.. 'people are fragile things, you should know by now'.. 'you speak when you're spoken to'... They are harmless.. And unfortunately Editors is just another band in a long line of boring and harmless bands... Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, Editors, etc. should really stop releasing albums. They sound the same, and worst of all - they sound like people who has the vulgar lust for stardom - it's all about being famous. It's just such a shame that the NME shouts them out to be better than they are.. Go get the latest Black Rebel Motorcycle Club albun "Howl" instead. Now THAT is one great album :o)

I've got nothing wrong with the editors myself, (i've not really heard enough to judge) but i'm suprised Moz likes them. From what i have heard it's a bit... joy division.

Punk Rock Kids (Score:1)
Mozzergirl along with someothers on this thread sound like little punk rock kids, those that claim that once a punk rock band has gained recognition, which didn't come easy, they have sold out. Those little punk rock kids are the same hypocrats that wear Sex Pistols, The Ramones, and The Clash patches over their hipster jean jackets.
